Hank Hough with Kingdom Dog Ministries...

We had visitors at church this morning. Hank Hough from Kingdom Dog ministries was in our church services today. He brought his dog Prophet to show us how to be obediant to God's plan for our lives. They did an amazing job. Hank is a wonderful speaker who really knows what is important in life. Hank spoke about the importance of living for God and obeying his will instead of trying to make our will His will. A person could learn a lot from Prophet and his complete faith and obedience in his owner. They inspired me to have that same obedience and faith and live according to my heavenly father's plan for me. If you ever get a chance to see Hank Hough I highly recommend it. It is truly a life changing experience.

Lazy but productive weekend...

Chloe and I took it easy yesterday. We stayed in because it looked like it was going to rain all day. I cleaned the kitchen and did some laundry. It is amazing how much laundry one person and one dog can mess up. I did however give Chloe a bath. Since the weather has been nice she has been spending a lot of time outside and she really stunk!!! Yesterday she spent so much time she couldn't get rid of her smell so I knew the time had come to give the bath. Bathtime is not her favorite time. After her bath I took her picture but she looked more scruffy after her bath then she did before. Oh well at least she was clean. Today after church my mom came down to bring me some items that I will be using in a wedding shower that I am helping with next weekend. We went to Cheddar's for lunch. It was delicious. If you have never been I highly recommend it. The food is great. You get a lot of it, and it is not that expensive. Does it get any better than that? I don't think so!!!! I finally remembered to take pictures of the shamrocks for my classroom. I wanted to prove to my mother that our hard work paid off. They turned out cute and the kids love them. Well I hope everyone has a great week!!!

Lazy and Relaxing Weekend...

Well I really do not have anything interesting to post about but it has been a week since my last post and thought I should post about something. Yesterday Chloe and I took it easy or a better way to say it we were lazy. It was cloudy and cold all day. It even snowed for awhile. It was neat but it didn't stick.
Last year my mom came up with this really cute idea of making shamrocks for my classroom. She even purchased all of the material. Thanks Mom!!!! Sometimes Mom and I have the best of intentions with ideas but never follow through with them. Well this time I decided to finish them and hang them up for Parent/Teacher conferences which will be the week of St. Patrick's Day. I have 16 out of 24 completely finished. The glue is still drying on the final eight. I will take a picture when I get them hung. But, you can't make fun of me. I am probably the least crafty person you will ever meet. It was kind of fun making them though. That is really the only productive thing I have done over the weekend.


After church today Granny, Ruby, and I made our regular treck to Western Sizzlin in Van Buren. However to our wonderful surprise my Uncle Johnny and Aunt Pat came to eat lunch there as well. Uncle Johnny is usually pretty sneaky when it comes to sneaking around and paying for your meal without you even knowing what he is up to. Well today I actually played a part in being able to trick him with a little help from the waitress. She snuck me the ticket which Granny actually payed for. It was really great getting to visit with them. We made plans for a summer barbeque with the rest of the family. I really hope it works out. Johnny smokes meat better than anybody I know.

I hope everyone else had a fun and relaxing weekend.
